Cinema had very basic
beginning starting with silent and
black and white films. In the way Clips of the
of special effects cinema was enchated drawing
very basic, the first known film
with the use of live action and
animation was The Enchanted
Drawing, which was releasing in
1900. This consisted of several
cuts where the drawing would
change depending in on what
the actor was doing to it. This
was very primitive however this
was the start of stop motion
animation combined with live
action. The first fully animated
short was directed by James
Stuart Blackton called Clip of humorous
Humorous Phases of Funny faces
Faces and depicted several
characters. This changed the
industry as it demonstrated the
technique of stop motion
therefore allowing several other
filmmakers to develop and
advance the technique to
break cinematic history.
Montage of clips
One person who has done this that ray
was Ray Harryhausen. harryhaussen
Harryhausen was one of the
great stop-motion artists of the /photo of ray
20th century and was
responsible for the likes of king
kong, Almighty Joe and The
Golden Voyage Of Sinbad. All of
these monsters came to life with
the use of stop motion. However
this process was very expensive
as the models were hard to
make and it was difficult to
combine live action with the
stop motion characters.

However this was overcome


when Harryhausen was working
on a low budget film called The Clips of early work
Beast from 20,000 Fathoms. and almighty joe
Harryhausen came up with a
technique he later would call
"dynamation". The technique Clip demonstrating
used a split screen, with rear the process of
projection. Split screen had dynamtion
been around as a special effect
from almost the beginning of film
itself. One early clip from France
shows a bicycler rider sailing
over the city of paris. The
photographer had shot it by
covering the bottom half of the
lens with black tape, then filming
the bicycle rider over the top of
it. The mask was then
reversedand the film rewound
inside the camera. The film
would then be exposed again,
this time the photographing the
city of Paris through the bottom
half of the lens. When the film
was developed, the rider
appeared to be sailing across
the Paris skyline.

This technique changed the Clips of use of


special effects industry as it dynamation
showed filmmakers that even
the smallest budget can create
a cinematic masterpiece.
Cinematic pioneers carried on
using and developing these
techniques to create
spectacular scenes like in the
water parting scene in the ten
commandments. This is Clip of the water
considered the most expensive parting scene
special effect in history, the
actual parting was created by
pouring 300,000 gallons of water
into a tank and then playing the
shot backward.

Another stand out moment in Clip of special

Wars A New Hope, this was the
first film to deploy a motion-
controlled camera. Hooked up Picture of john

motion-control system (named
